Presidents do not implement laws. They do champion and promote them, and encourage congress to pass them, at which point presidents sign them into law. But it is generally up to the states and/or the particular agencies of government to implement new laws. That said, President Obama has championed a number of laws, including equal pay for women, expanded access to healthcare, and the end of discrimination against gay people in the military.
